Descriptions

Bookmark handling in Google Chrome prior to 54.0.2840.59 for Windows, Mac, and Linux; 54.0.2840.85 for Android had insufficient validation of supplied data, which allowed a remote attacker to inject arbitrary scripts or HTML (UXSS) via crafted HTML pages, as demonstrated by an interpretation conflict between userinfo and scheme in an http://javascript:payload@example.com URL.

El manejo de etiquetas en Google Chrome en versiones previas a 54.0.2840.59 para Windows, Mac y Linux; 54.0.2840.85 para Android tiene una validación insuficiente de los datos suministrados, lo que permite a un atacante remoto inyectar secuencias de comandos o HTML (UXSS) arbitrarias a través de páginas HTML manipuladas, según lo demostrado por un conflicto de interpretación entre userinfo y esquema en una URL http://javascript:payload@example.com.
